Phone suggestion(s) please.

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.fido (More info?)

I'm looking for an inexpensive GSM phone and I was hoping that
I might find some suggestions here. I have a 3390 but the battery doesn't
last very long so if I'm going to use it, I'll have to buy a new battery
and a SIM card. I realized that would cost me almost as much as if bought
a new phone so I went and picked up a Sony Ericsson T237. Ugh. I hate it.
First off, it's way to small for my taste, the menus are totally foreign
to me because I've been using Nokia phones for the last 6 years and the
worst part is that the phone is really slow. There is a lag every time I
hit a key and it's driving me nuts. I could adjust to the menus but the
lag is intolerable. I don't need a colour screen, I don't need calenders,
memos, calculators or games (I carry a PDA). Any suggestions?

I think I'm going to take this T237 back to Fido unless someone
wants to offer me a trade for another phone. I'm eligible to get a camera
for it for half price ($32.50) which I'd be happy to pick up if that is
something you want.

Thanks in advance.
